Abstract
Low resource environments are characterised by a lack of technical skills, facilities and funding. In such environments, building digital repositories of historical and heritage collections is particularly dicult, exacerbated by the desperate need for digital preservation. This paper analyses design principles for digital repositories and their suitability for low-resource environments. A case study is presented to illustrate how adopting the positive principles in support of low-resource environments can support the creation of a heritage-oriented digital repository appropriate to its environment.
